SPECIAL OPERATIONS DIVISION
PREVENTION SERVICES SECTION
EAGLE EYE/CHILD NET PROGRAM
A partnership between the United States Postal Service and the clearinghouse, that utilizes postal carriers to search for missing children. Postal carriers are provided a missing child flier, and while they are on their normal delivery routes they search for the child.
AMBER ALERT
Amber Alert is dedicated to act as a liaison between law enforcement and the media, to quickly disseminate information on an endangered missing child to the public. Working together, the Michigan Association of Broadcasters, Michigan Association Chiefs of Police, Michigan Sheriffs Association, Michigan Department of Transportation, and the Michigan Department of State Police support the Michigan Amber Alert program.
Amber Alert Criteria
The child is in the company of a person who has a confirmed history of child abuse/neglect, sexual assault, domestic assault or a crime involving victimization of children; or
The person with the child has made statements of intent to harm the child or is suicidal; or
The child has been taken by a non-custodial parent whose parental rights have been terminated by a court; or
The child has a severe mental or physical disability that greatly impairs the childs ability to care for his or herself.
LOCATER
A computerized program supplied by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) that electronically creates and disseminates images and case information on a missing child. This system allows law enforcement to create missing children posters, and place the missing children images on the NCMEC website.

LEIN- LAW ENFORCEMENT INFORMATION NETWORK
LEIN is a statewide repository of missing persons; persons for whom warrants have been issued; and vehicles that are abandoned, stolen, or impounded. LEIN interfaces with a multitude of databases and information is available from multiple sources including various state, federal and international databases. Users can retrieve and enter data from these sources.
LEIN is accessed through a browser application, allowing you more flexibility in printer and computer options. The browser application allows Michigan to comply with mandated federal regulations requiring public networks be protected using 128-bit encryption. Browser - based applications also permit rapid deployment of changes, increased flexibility, and decreased maintenance. LEIN is a valuable tool that all law enforcement agencies need to ensure the safety of their officers and the citizens they protect and serve. During a time when Homeland Security is at the forefront of all our minds, LEIN can provide an information network to assist with officer and citizen safety.
